Canada Healthcare Occupation List 2024

With aging population and relatively low birth-rates, the pressure is increasing significantly on the healthcare system of Canada.  Moreover, the scarcity of workforce is evident in view of significant number of retirements. Canada Healthcare Occupation List comprise the list of healthcare occupations, which are highly in demand in Canada and fall under Healthcare Occupation category.

One approach to relieve this strain on Canada's healthcare system is to prioritize immigration candidates with established experience in healthcare occupations. This could help ease the growing demands on the healthcare system, which is already stretched thin.

A significant portion of vacancies in Healthcare are likely to be filled through the new category-based Express Entry draws being conducted by the Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Nearly half of the eligible occupations in this category are associated with healthcare and encompass a wide range of roles.

Within the healthcare occupations category, there are a total of 35 different occupations, which are listed below.

Note: the occupations in this list are subject to change periodically, hence, to confirm the latest status of an occupation in the Healthcare occupation list you may call Visas Avenue Canada Immigration Expert on Toll-Free No. 78-18-000-777 or you can drop us an e-mail at info@visasavenue.com.
